Chapter 14

Sorry for the wait it's just, Halo 5 came out and that took my attention for an entire week but I finally put it down… for now.

Oh god am I tired I didn't get any sleep after 'the incident' with Sonic I needed to make sure he didn't try it again, thankfully nothing happened; in fact I found him making breakfast for me and it wasn't just chilly dogs.

Even with that after last night I really needed to spend time away from Sonic So I called Sally and told her I wanted to hang out; hopefully she doesn't bring up Sonic.

It was a nice day for a walk the sun was bright and hot but not too hot. I followed Sally around as she wanted to take me to someplace, I didn't know what this place was going to be and I was getting a little anxious.

I kept thinking about last night I felt terrible for hurting Sonic but I'm still not sure if he was telling the truth or just set up an elaborate lie. I think Sally saw me looking distraught since she stopped and looked at me concerned.

"Are you alright?" She asked already knowing the answer

"Just something really crazy happened last night" I said

"Was it Sonic?" She sighed

I nodded my head as my response not wanting to tell Sally any more. I think she caught that and she gave me a reassuring hug and whispered "He's always been a little crazy but he's a good guy when you get to know him" I gave Sally a warm smile as she returned it and we continued walking.

Sally's never told me anything bad about Sonic, but then again people change over a couple of years. I mean for the longest time I was a shy girl who never talked to anyone. Still was he lying or am I just paranoid?

xXx

With Amy and Carron out of the house I found myself very bored I can't go into the mystery room because the key is gone and I can't, call Sally to see if she wants to hang out because she's out with Amy.

Well I guess I should just watch a movie to pass- oh the door opened I presume Carron is home. I walked up stairs and found her looked very tired she was rubbing her eyes and didn't look like she fixed herself up. Her hair was a mess and she wasn't wearing any makeup. She looked at me with a warm smile that I didn't return.

"Hello Sonic" She said trying to hide how tired she was.

"Hey Carron"

"Where's Amy?" by the mere mention of her name I got a little scared that Amy might have called her mom telling her what happened last night.

"O-out with Sally" I said a little nervous

"Oh good I didn't want her seeing me like this" Carron said jokingly

"Where were you last night?" I asked

"Out with a FRIEND" She said I quickly took the hint and didn't dig deeper.

"So what are you going to do?" I asked wondering if I could get her to leave with the keys still here.

"Take a nap" She said popping the P on nap.

"Oh ok I won't disturb you" I said wholeheartedly She gave me a quick smile before walking away putting some things in the kitchen, hopefully the keys. Then she walked upstairs and I heard her door shut.

I slowly and quietly walked into the kitchen looking for the key rack and spotting all of them there. Yes finally I can learn the truth behind this door. I grabbed like all 10 keys and tiptoed my way down stairs.

I pulled a random key and tried it, that didn't work how about the next one, nope. Ok 3rd time the charm, dammit. Alright how about the 4th, 5th 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, nope none of them. Alright it all come down to this last key I swear to god if it's this one I won't be surprised it's always the last one.

I put the key into the socket and it fit! I slowly turned the key unlocking the door and I opened it, I'm in!

I looked inside and saw… nothing except the floor it was a pitch black room. I reached around the corner for a light switch and found nothing I pulled out my phone and turned the flashlight on and I was amazed at what I saw.

It's just a storage room with boxes! Really that what has been behind this door why would they lock it? There has to be something in here they don't want me finding.

xXx

Sally really wanted where we're going to be a surprise so she blindfolded me and led me along for a bit before stopping me.

"Alright you ready?" She asked sounding excited

"As ready as I've ever been" I said just wanted her to show me I always hated surprises there usually not as good as you think they would be.

"Ok look where we are" Sally said removing the blindfold and I couldn't believe it, we were at Rosemary Park! I really couldn't believe it this was my favorite place to go with my father when I was younger. I looked back at Sally she looked as happy as I was.

"How did you know?" I asked amazed

"I remember you mentioning it once so I thought, it would get you in a good mood" Sally said like it was nothing

"Well thank you" even though the park is grosser than before, I don't remember the trash or these white things, it's amazing she remembered that.

"You're welcome" Sally said side hugging me.

I walked over to a park bench and admired the view of the beautiful River and listened to sounds of the water it was so peaceful. As nice as this was I couldn't get Sonic out of my head he kept popping in every once a while. I should talk to Sally about him maybe then it can clear my mind of him.

"Sally?" I looked at her as she was watching the river as well but she didn't look away. "Sally!" then she was out of her trance I guess she found it as beautiful as I did.

"What?" She asked sitting next to me.

"I need to tell you something about Sonic" I said getting her full attention, she must have been waiting for me to tell her what he did.

"What is, that you got in an argument about Chili dogs?" Sally asked jokingly

"No!" I said annoyed Sally had a quick chuckle giving me time to think if I should tell her what happened last night and I think that would be for the worse, but I can't just not tell her anything.

"I think he's hiding something I see it in his eyes" I lied what am I doing? While that is true I DO think He's hiding something but just not that he's lying.

"Oh I know what you're talking about" Sally said looking grim

"Really" I said amazed. Ok now I want to know what she's talking about.

xXx

I've been stumbling around this room for about half an hour and haven't found anything just odd just old crap. There are only a few boxes left and one caught my eye it was unmarked all the other boxes had something writian on them like whose stuff it was or what it was things like that but this was unmarked either it empty or hiding something very important. I opened it up and found an envelope, a binder, and a empty shell casing for a bullet.

I first grabbed the binder and it was full of pictures most of them had this male hedgehog in them he was red, tall, slender, with jade green eyes, I think was Amy's father. A lot of the pictures were of him and Amy; all of them were dated back 5 years ago or even farther back.

I put the binder back and next grabbed the envelope it was already cut open it read.
